When the official Shangshu Bai Ye returned home, the housekeeper followed up with a thick stack of famous posts as usual. There were so many officials who came to see him every day that the housekeeper was so dry that Bai Ye only remembered two or three of them.

"Come to think of it, there's another person." The housekeeper put away the name post, and said cautiously: "The new Han Xiufeng, the new Tongzhi on the south bank of the Yongding River, sent his family to come, showed the name card to the little one, and left two hundred taels of silver tickets and left. I have seen a lot of small ones like him, and it is really the first time I have seen him like this, and I didn't even let the little ones submit a letter. ”

The capital is very large, but it is very small for a big person like Bai Ye, especially when it comes to the emperor's affairs, even if it is just a little trouble, you can receive the news as soon as possible.

Thinking that the emperor not only summoned the young Zhengwupin Tongzhi at noon today, but also rewarded him with the military book he had read when he was the prince in the afternoon, Bai Ye couldn't help laughing and said: "He doesn't need to ask the master and me to take care of him, so naturally he doesn't need you to submit any letters." ”

"Master, even if the surname Han is in the emperor's heart, he is only a ...... of the same five products."

"What's wrong with the five products, not only are they just donating the five products, but they can train and fight, first Guo Peilin has to be promoted, and then Xu Naizhao and Peng Yunzhang are recommended, and now it is Jane in the emperor's heart and the holy family Enlong, if it is replaced by those who don't know the height of the sky, the eyes will grow on the forehead, but before people take office, they can still remember that they were led by the master, and they can also send a farewell, which shows that he is an official and a person."

The housekeeper reacted suddenly: "I said why didn't you even leave a letter, it turns out that he is the person recommended by Master Peng." ”

"Just know, is there anything else?"

……

At the same time, Rong Lu, who had just returned home from work, also smiled as he watched his family present the silver ticket.

"Sir, what are you laughing at?" The family couldn't help but ask.

Rong Lu didn't answer his family's questions, but put down the silver ticket and asked, "Master Han sent his family to send these twenty taels of silver tickets, and he didn't leave a letter or let his family talk?" ”

"No, not nothing, but it's all polite."

"How?"

"The person who gave the silver ticket said that Master Han had to go to Gu'an early in the morning to take office, and he really couldn't spare it to say goodbye, so let the little one help to tell you the crime, saying that he would definitely come to the door to apologize if he had the opportunity in the future."

The last time I went to Chongqing Hall to visit, it was obvious that I was begging others to take care of Yongxiang after taking office, but Rong Lu never thought that people not only didn't get any benefits but also promised to take care of Yongxiang, and even sent his family to send twenty taels of farewell before taking office. Twenty taels of silver is nothing, but this favor is not small. After all, people are now the five products, and they are the five products of the saints.

Thinking of this, Rong Lu got up and said: "Master Han is so polite, we can't lose our courtesy, didn't he leave Beijing tomorrow morning, I don't have time tomorrow, you go to inform Yongxiang later, and call him to go to Chongqing Hall to see off Master Han early in the morning." ”

"Master, it's easy to call Yongxiang, but since it's a send-off, you can't be empty-handed."

"Who let you go empty-handed, people can afford us, remember to give us a farewell tribute before taking office, and we naturally have to give us a Cheng Yi."

"How much is the right send?"

Rong Lu weighed it, smiled and picked up one of the silver tickets that Han Xiufeng asked Su Jueming to send: "Keep half, give back half, we have received this favor, we have made this friend!" ”

"Okay, I'll go find Yongxiang."

……

Han Xiufeng never thought about making any friends with Rong Lu, but he was about to leave Beijing to take office, and he had to give a farewell tribute to the princes and ministers in Beijing, the master of the house, his classmates in the same year and his friends in the same year.

Compared with Duan Dazhang, he knew very few princes and ministers, and there were only two of them, Bai Ye, the secretary of the Ministry of Ministers, and Peng Yunzhang, the secretary of the Ministry of Works. Although the donor background is not as good as the imperial examination, but the donation also has the advantage of donating the background, neither the teacher nor the same classmate in the same year, which can save a lot of ice and charcoal and farewell.

Thinking that he had brought a lot of silver with him to Beijing this time, Han Xiufeng simply asked Su Jueming to count the civil and military officials he met in Beijing this time, regardless of the size of the official position and the level of his grade, anyway, except for the two Shangshu adults and a few of the best fellow villagers, one only sent twenty taels, and it would not cost much more money to send a few more.

Sitting in the Zuohua Hall with Wang Qianli and Pan Er, after listening to Su Jueming's report, Han Xiufeng put down the teacup and said, "Think about it again, is there anyone who hasn't sent it, and is there anything missing." ”

Su Jueming subconsciously looked at the roster, raised his head and said, "Guards Peng sent it there, and even Curator Zhang sent it, so there shouldn't be any omissions." ”

"It's good that nothing was missed." Han Xiufeng smiled, and just turned around and was about to ask Pan Er what his plans were next, Pan Er suddenly said: "Fourth brother, I have been patronizing the wedding wine of eating a lot of money in the past two days, and I almost forgot about business!" ”

"What's the matter?"

"Before I came, I went to Anfeng Field to see Han Yunju, and Han Yunju asked me to bring a thousand taels of silver tickets, which can be regarded as a tribute to Master Huang and Master Ji and other fellow villagers. It's just that he has been away from Beijing for too long, and he doesn't know the current rules in Beijing, so let me ask your family how much is appropriate. ”

Han Xiufeng realized that Han Chen didn't want to stop at the Lianghuai Yun Judgment in his career, and wanted to go further, and muttered: "Since he has this heart, then you can help him send one hundred taels each to Huang Yushi, Master Ji, Master Wu, Master Li and Master Ao, Master Jiang and Master Wang and other fellow Jinshi villagers fifty taels, Curator Zhang's side fifty taels, and you can take care of the rest of the silver." ”

"Okay, that's it."

Wang Qianli couldn't help but ask: "Fourth Master, do you think I should also send some charcoal to a few Hanlin Masters and Jinshi Masters?" ”

"You don't need to, after all, you are not a fellow villager and you don't have any friendship before."

"Where's Curator Zhang?"

"Curator Zhang has already given a thousand taels in the afternoon, so there is no need to send it again."

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

Han Xiufeng smiled, turned around and said: "Jueming, Ming'er will leave Beijing early in the morning, if you are fast, Ming'er will be able to see Lord Wu and Master Shi at night, you can prepare another four hundred taels of silver tickets, we can't go to see each other empty-handed." ”

"I've been ready," Su Jueming was very good at doing this, and said with a smile: "Fourth Master, I even have prepared a meeting gift for you to go to meet the Lord of the Domain, the Domain, and the Lord." ”

"We don't have to go to see the platform, the domain, and the platform."

"Fourth master, it's not good not to go and see you!" Wang Qianli subconsciously reminded.

"In other words, if you want to be a Tongzhi in other places, you naturally have to visit the Zhitai, the Fantai and the Zhentai, but the Tongzhi on the south bank of the Yongding River that I want to do now is different from the Tongzhi in other places. Let's put it this way, this time I was ordered to train troops to defend Gyeonggi, and neither the control station nor Pantai were allowed to ask about the camp affairs other than food and salary, and I, the battalion officer, could not get too close to them. ”

"What about Lord Wu Tingdong, he is your immediate boss, can he take care of the camp affairs?"

"Lord Wu naturally can, but Lord Wu can only ask."

"So who are we going to listen to?"

Han Xiufeng said without hesitation: "No matter who wants to transfer my river camp, they have to take the official document from the Military Aircraft Department." If there is no emperor's edict or an official document from the Military Aircraft Department, even if the secretary of the military department and the master of the Taiwan system come in person, don't think about transferring a soldier from my river camp! ”

Wang Qianli suddenly realized that the reason why Peng Yunzhang, the Minister of Military Aircraft, promoted Han Xiufeng to be transferred to Tongzhi on the south bank of the Yongding River, the reason why several other ministers of military aircraft did not object, and the reason why the emperor was able to agree, was not only because Han Xiufeng could fight a war in training, but also because he was not very at ease with the new Yongding River Wu Tingdong.

After all, the military training was proposed by Wu Tingdong, and Wu Tingdong, as the Yongding River, not only governs so many states and counties along the river, but also governs the river camps, which can be called the upper horse and the army, and the lower horse and the people, how can the imperial court rest assured that he is such a Han soldier in Gyeonggi and is in charge of so many states and counties with one hand and the other hand in charge of the river camp. Even if it is full, it will not be able to hold such power in Gyeonggi City.

It's best now, two officials who have not had any intersection before, one is in charge of food and salary, and the other is leading the troops, holding each other back, the court can rest assured, and the emperor can rest assured!

Thinking of this, Wang Qianli couldn't help but say: "Fourth Master, after you take office, I'm afraid it won't be easy to deal with Lord Wu." ”

Han Xiufeng had long heard that Wu Tingdong was a capable official, but he also knew that he couldn't fight with Wu Tingdong just because Wu Tingdong was a good official, and he couldn't even get too close to Shi Zanqing, and said lightly: "This deal is not good, but I have to fight, anyway, I haven't been impeached, so what if I am impeached a few times." ”
